No. 22: LSU 27, Texas A&M 24
It was a battle when the Tigers hosted the Aggies for the final game of the year. Early on it looked like LSU would handle business at home as the Tigers led 17-7 at the half. Both touchdowns came from 45+ yards out. As the teams went to the fourth quarter, LSU led 20-10, and then the Aggies responded.
After two touchdowns from Zach Calzada to Jalen Preston, Texas A&M led 24-20 with 7:33 left in the game. The teams would trade punts before LSU went to work with less than two minutes to go in the game. Johnson found Jenkins once again to give the Tigers the lead late. Damone Clark sealed the game with back-to-back sacks to send Orgeron out on top.
What ESPN Says…
LSU sent Ed Orgeron off a winner in his last game in charge. Two Zach Calzada-to-Jalen Preston touchdowns gave the Aggies a sudden, late lead, but given one last chance, LSU rallied. Max Johnson hit Jaray Jenkins for 31- and 28-yard completions, the latter giving the Tigers the lead for good with 20 seconds left.
